Am I A Slacker??

I suppose I'm either a slacker, having too much fun, or too busy doing productive type things to keep up daily with my blog...what the hell, maybe it's a combination of all three. I know that you've missed the blog, I've gotten mail, oh yes, I have fans... Don't worry, I'm baaaack!
